About this Event
FLIGHT NIGHT is a FREE program for MIDDLE and HIGH SCHOOL students (Grades 6-12). Sign up here for our free 3 hour program on Tuesday and Sunday evenings from 6pm to 9:00pm.
We typically add new dates one month at a time. If you don't find a date that works for you, or we are fully booked, please check back mid-month for dates in the following month.
Students will learn about:
- The history of aviation and how airplanes fly
- Learn about navigation and weather
- Fly each of our 4 flight simulators (Redbird TD, two virtual reality X-Plane, and a full motion sim)
- Tour of the Tulip City Air Service hangar, talk with mechanics and flight line workers
- Sit in an airplane and learn about how the instruments and flight controls work
- Talk with flight instructors and other aviation professionals (as available)
** PLEASE ONLY REGISTER THE STUDENT. PARENTS/GUARDIANS DO NOT REGISTER. (Parent is to simply attend along with their registered student)
* Unfortunately, we have seen an uptick of people signing up only to cancel very last minute or simply not show up at all. Sadly, this takes up a spot that another student could have used and is unfair to our volunteers who joyfully give their time and share their wealth of knowledge. We ask that you please only sign up if you intend to attend. We understand that occasionally things come up, and should that happen, we ask that that you log back in to eventbrite as early as possible to officially cancel your spot so that another student might be able to attend. This is especially important for those signing up groups of students together.
Flight Path and the FLIGHT NIGHT program are fully staffed by volunteers. If you would like to help with the FLIGHT NIGHT program or other Flight Path events, please email us at [email protected].
Donations are always appreciated.
